Have a fence with sections that are 10 ft wide by 8 ft tall. Was
thinking about running 1 (or more) loops of wire around the perimeter
of each section and, with the right electronics, being able to detect
the presence of large objects (ie people) that may come very close to
the fence.
Alternatively, each loop can be 10 ft wide by 4 ft high (from a
detection stand-point, is this size loop better than 10 x 8?).
Now, suppose that the fence is really a concrete wall (average
thickness = 3 inches). Does it matter which side of the wall the loop
is on?
What would be the prinicple of operation? Would the loop form part of
an oscillator circuit, and a nearby body would change the inductance
of the loop thus causing a frequency shift?
Any example circuits for something like this?
